On Sunday 30th November, there will be a fashion parade of Ukrainian blouses from various parts of Ukraine in Sydney. I very much hope to go, seeing I have an interest in Ukrainian embroidery since writing my book Ukrainian Drawn Thread Embroidery: Merezhka Poltavska.
A commentary on the history of the Ukrainian blouse and the origin of the blouses will accompany the modelling.
Sunday 30th November 2014 at 2pm, Ukrainian Hall, 59 Joseph St, Lidcombe, Sydney.
Entrance fee: $10. All proceeds will be donated towards helping Ukraine.
There will also be the opportunity to purchase Ukrainian handmade artefacts.
For further information, contact Kristina Bailey, President of the Olena Pchilka branch of the Ukrainian Women’s Association, NSW on (02) 94878732.
